Data
Hamilton Project's Map of Absenteeism

The Hamilton Project created an interactive map using national data reported by school districts to the U.S. Department of Education Civil Rights Data Collection for the 2015-2016 school year.

You may use the map to compare rates of chronic absenteeism across New York, broken down by school characteristics and student demographics.
